The tzdata-update Jakub refers to is run as part of the glibc post-install script. It doesn't matter what you use to install it (RPM, yum, up2date, whatever). Since the FC4 glibc doesn't have the tzdata-update you need to do something else to update /etc/localtime. Perhaps this page about RHEL will help: http://kbase.redhat.com/faq/FAQ_79_9950 There is a section that discusses what to do if you don't have tzdata-update (obviously the section about updating to the RHEL glibc won't apply). -- William Hooper
